Project Manager | £9m new build car showroom | Cardiff

Freelance - 48 weeks | Start 3rd September 2018

Rate - Circa £275 - £310 p/day

This £100m turnover building contractor carries out new build, & large refurbishments across a range of sectors up to a project value of circa £5m.

They have an immediate need for an experienced No1 project manager to work on a £9m new build in Cardiff that comprises of a car showroom and workshop, and an external valet bay.

The project itself starts on 10th September 2018 but the company is looking for a Project Manager to start on 3rd September 2018.

This is a well-known car brand and the finishes are very high end. The project involves piling, groundworks, and new build steel frame construction and fit out.

This is currently a Brownfield site that has just been remediated. Next step is to get the foundations in and get the steel frame erected (the shell is straightforward), lots of shiny cladding and glass, stud walls, fancy tiling and a high-end fit-out.

In theory, the first 26 weeks should be straightforward. Weeks 26-48 are when the pressure mounts as there will be 17 sub-contractors all trying to get into the same space to work at the same time.

The Project Manager will be assisted by a Site Manager who has carried out this type of work before.

The site project manager will take the job from start to finish and will be expected to be a "proper" stand-alone No1 on site; looking after the project, programme, design, meetings, H&S, construction plan and day to day activities on site of the site team and sub-contractors.

The ideal site project manager must:

• Have CSCS, SMSTS and First Aid at Work
• Be available to start on 3rd September 2018 for a minimum of 43 weeks
• Have a proven track record of new build and delivery of projects from start to finish
